Is the UNC NIL collective so bad we can’t scratch on the list below? Or is this list just some fake news AI generated B.S.?

I see three on there I would want my children to attend, and then dook which also has a reputation for being solid academically. Priorities are just different.

Surprised BYU and Duke are on the list. BYU is in front of places like Alabama and UGA. Second tier surprise is VT, Louisville, West Virginia and Arizona.
 
NIL is the reason I’ve lost interest in Carolina sports. Kids used to come to UNC because they fell in love with its traditions, beauty, academics, mystique. Now, it’s all about the Benjamins…for a year or two, then they go elsewhere. What do I have in common with those kids? And yes I do think student athletes should be compensated, but I hate the current system of college hopping and bidding wars.

It is AI clickbait.

There is very little reliable data about where the various schools ranks. None of it is public.

Basically, we are roughly upper middle in football spending and top 5 in basketball spending.
 
All it takes is a few uber wealthy alumni who think this is a good use of their money, or in the case of Indiana just one.

As for MJ, I doubt a guy that won 7 championships the hard way approves of buying them. I pretty much agree with him. People can do what they want wth their own money but if I had more millions than I knew what to do with I'd be helping the poor and trying to cure cancer rather than paying college athletes.

I guess MJ doesn't care to contribute. How does he feel about the whole NIL thing?

Dean Smith suggested to UNC basketball lettermen that they didn’t need to contribute to athletics - they’d already given plenty.

He also suggested that if they wanted to donate to academics, go at it.

What are the sources for that and do they cover less official money?
